You misunderstand; i'm not for the govn drilling. I simply think the govn should stay out of the way of private businesses, or publicly owned corps, and let the market dictate whether or not it's profitable to drill in those places. As it is the govn isn't allowing any drilling.

And Samantha companies have tried to push electric cars; they are a poor substitute for the gas guzzlers we currently enjoy. Until a company can create an electric car that is as easy to operate and maintain I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for the change.
